Cordoba – Oviedo

Match analysis

Cordoba host Oviedo in what promises to be a stark contrast of form, with the home side languishing in 20th place on just three points from one win and four defeats, scoring only seven goals while conceding twelve. Oviedo sit comfortably in seventh, having amassed eight points from two victories, two draws and a single loss, and they boast a superior goal difference of +3, having netted four and allowed just one. The gap between the clubs is evident in their recent records – Cordoba’s solitary win came early in the campaign, whereas Oviedo have picked up points consistently over the last five games. If Cordoba hope to climb out of the relegation zone, they will need to tighten up at the back and find the finishing touch that has eluded them all season, while Oviedo will look to extend their steady run and press their advantage in the table.
